Histoire de l'art de la verrerie dans l'antiquité
Histoire de l'art de la verrerie dans l'antiquité is a French scholarly history of ancient glassmaking by Achille Deville, published in Paris in 1871 by Morel for specialists and students of antiquity. Its plates are hand-coloured drawings of ancient glass vessels set on pale cream grounds, showing ewers, amphorae, cups, flasks and beakers in soft grey-green, amber and blue tones that a designer could use for historical reference, vintage packaging or muted palettes.
